TALK OF THE TERRITORY

ON THE PROPOSED MYILLY POINT MUSEUM

More Labor evaporating dollars poured into a project that most people do not want!

A 10 year plan which means the next 12 months will be taken up with consultation then maybe stuff might happen. With Ms Wakefield’s previous experience in a women’s shelter why has it taken 15 months (since coming into government) to get any account of the problems. What action is she going to take today, not tomorrow or next week, but today to start reducing these abysmal numbers. Ian
